LGBT is the abbreviation for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender. It is used as an umbrella term to describe the community of people who do not conform to traditional sexual or gender identities. Out of respect for those who do not identify with any of these terms, Oasis also includes "Q" to recognize those who identify as queer or questioning, "I" for those who identify as intersex, "A" for those who identify as asexual or agender, and "+" in recognition of those whom the other letters do not describe, but who nonetheless identify as members of a sexual or gender minority.
